"It is best to avoid this restaurant and instead go to Coastal Coffee. After reading a review by Megan Potter mentioning rude staff, we unfortunately experienced the same treatment. Upon arrival, we noticed an empty outdoor table without a menu. When we asked inside, we received a vague explanation about seating rules. When we asked for a menu, we were met with frustration because there was already one on the table. The staff member rushed us to order before we even had a chance to look at the menu. When we asked for more time, we were met with eye rolls and a strange comment about everyone being weird that day. The staff member's attitude made our experience unpleasant. We decided to leave and found better service at Coastal Coffee. The food there was delicious and made up for our earlier disappointment. It's a shame that one bad employee can ruin the charm of a place."
